so obama has a lot of advantages. the labor vote, for instance, is going to be bigger for obama this time than it was in 2008. it's one of those areas where people are switching to obama rather than away. but there are some other demographic groups where there's been slipdlcpage for obama and would be cautious about being too optimistic about ohio at this point. >> cuyahoga county, i was talking to state senator nina turner. they are 12,000 votes off of where they were for 2008. that's a microcause sem for the state. what does it mean? >> early voting has favored obama. in ohio in 2008, mccain actually won on election day. >> yeah. >> obama carried the state comfortably but not on election day. so they have to go into election day with a good lead in the early voting or they won't make it. >> here's romney today in iowa talking about people getting handouts. >> paul and i have not promised you bigger check from the govern in the and we haven't promised to take some people to redistribute to you. >> richard, is this an

maybe 3.5% to 4% pro-obama. and what that race is going to come down to if the focus is on pennsylvania and ohio as you know, it's who lives up on the hill and who lives down in the valley. who looks like the guy who runs the company and who looks like the guy you work with. and the truth is that neither one of these guys fits totally into the framework of mind of the working class person in ohio or pennsylvania. but i think, i think that obama's still a little closer to their heart than mitt romney who hasn't made the sale to them personally. all he's done is made the case against obama. he hasn't made the case against himself. >> let me ask you about the argument that romney seems to be making. i thought he had a really good argument in the debates. first debate especially. chuck, he said business is jobs. i'm a business guy. i can give you jobs. it was so down the middle, so perfect for the country's need, the sense of need we have, all of us. that seems to be dissipated the past few weeks. it's not the front
